Superhero movies are experiencing quite the Renaissance lately. It seems like it’s hard to remember a time when we weren’t eagerly waiting for the next installment of the latest and greatest superhero franchise film.

Whether you’re a Marvel or DC fan, there are so many superhero movies being churned out on a regular basis, you’re bound to find at least one that will appeal to you.
